SCHOOL CRISIS RECOVERY & RENEWAL (SCRR) PROJECT!

School crisis readiness is essential. Response is critical.
And: what happens after matters, too.
SCRR supports students, educators, school staff, and school-based clinicians to effectively implement trauma-informed crisis recovery and renewal strategies. Nationally, the SCRR Team:
Increases availability of evidence-based and trauma-informed crisis recovery and renewal resources for schools
Increases adoption of evidence-based and trauma-informed crisis recovery and renewal protocols and practices by schools and districts
Increases implementation of evidence- based and trauma-informed recovery and renewal interventions for students, families, and school staff who experienced a school crisis event
Fosters system-level infrastructures and policies that support long-term sustainability of these protocols and practices for schools
